Mud House sources fruit from select vineyards across New Zealand’s South Island, where warm days and cool nights allow Cabernet Sauvignon to ripen slowly and develop concentrated fruit flavours. The winemaking approach emphasises bright fruit expression while maintaining the grape’s natural structure and depth.

Nose: Dark cherry, blackcurrant and hints of cedar open the bouquet, with subtle notes of dried herbs and a touch of sweet oak in the background.

Palate: Medium-bodied with juicy blackberry and plum flavours, complemented by fine-grained tannins and fresh acidity that keeps the wine lively and balanced. Soft vanilla and spice notes add complexity without overwhelming the fruit core.

Finish: Smooth and moderately persistent, with lingering dark berry flavours and a gentle grip of tannin that invites another sip.

Pair this Cabernet Sauvignon with grilled lamb chops, beef burgers with caramelised onions, or a hearty mushroom and lentil pie for vegetarian options.

Serve lightly chilled at 16–18°C in a standard red wine glass to showcase the fruit and structure without excess warmth.

A reliable choice for weeknight dinners, casual entertaining, or as a thoughtful host gift that won’t stretch the budget.
